2. With advancements and
growth in the field of
technology, devices
around us communicate
in more ways than we
ever imagined.

3. Embedded Systems have
become an essential
part of our day to day
life.

4. What is Embedded System?
o An embedded system is a combination of computer
hardware and software.
o It can range from having no User Interface (UI)
o Or have a complex Graphical User Interface (GUI)
o Embedded system hardware can be microprocessor- or
microcontroller-based.
o The embedded system is expected to continue rapidly
growing.
o IoT being the major subset of it, we also discuss it with an
idea of project.

5. o The future of embedded systems lies in the advancement
of technologies that enable faster communications, heavy
data storage capacities and highly interwoven connections
among the devices.
o Following are some of the trends we discuss about:
o Multi-core Processors
o Wireless Technology
o Open Source Technology
o Device Convergence
o Internationalization
o Smart Devices
o Security

Trends of Embedded System

6. Multi-core Processors
o 8-bit controllers were widespread for quite a long time.
o To cater the need for higher performance, these controllers
advanced towards 16-bit to 32-bit.
o These have higher bandwidth, enhanced processing
capabilities, quicker response times and more efficient
algorithms.
o Many of the Routers, Smartphones, Media Players, Gaming
Consoles, etc. nowadays use Multi-core Processor.
6

7. Open Source Technology
o Embedded systems have traditionally employed proprietary
hardware, software, communication protocols.
o Embedded devices were mostly operating as stand-alone
systems for a long time. A royalty had to be paid to the
vendors for using a particular software .
o However, this scenario is changing.
o Softwares like Linux, Drupal, Android, WordPress etc. comes
with royalty-free licenses, advanced networking capabilities
and a large base of engineers familiar with their system.

8. Security
o In an increasingly interconnected world, security in embedded
devices has become critical.
o The security requirements for the huge base of connected
embedded devices are distinct on account of their limited
memory, constrained middleware, and low computing power.
o Embedded security is the new differentiator for embedded
devices.
8

9. Smart Devices
o A smart device is an electronic device, generally connected
to other devices or networks via different wireless protocols.
o Bluetooth, NFC, Wi-Fi, Li-Fi, 3G, etc., are some that can
operate to some extent interactively and autonomously.
o Machine to machine (M2M) communication, through
both wired and wireless mechanisms is on the rise.
o While the technology for remote connectivity has been
in use for a long time, what is changing now is the
business scenario and newer use cases that remote
connectivity can be and is being applied to.

10. Device Convergence
o Convergence means, to merge.
o It enables multiple features to be integrated into a single
device.
o Example:
o Smartphone- features of Camera, PDA, Music Player,
Navigation, texting etc.
o Automotive infotainment system: Navigation Device, Video
Player, Bluetooth connectivity, Parking Enablement, etc.
10

11. Wireless Technology
o Embedded devices were mostly operating as stand-alone
systems for a long time.
o With advancements in wireless connectivity, the scenario
has changed.
o Wireless protocols like RFID, Bluetooth, Zigbee, NFC and
WLAN, LTE and cellular communications are bound to
witness more wide-spread applications in the near future.

12. Water
Management
and Supervision
System
12

13. Water Management and
Supervision System
o Water is need of life. Our idea is to manage and supervise the
water which we consume in our daily life by using the
technology (i.e. embedded system).
o The main objective of this project is to develop a system to
keep track of water level and water consumption from a
distant location.
o This system enables keeping track of water flow from any
location in real time.
o We do this by integrating wireless (IoT) embedded system.
13

14. Working of System
o The main aim of our system is to detect the water level in the tank
in real time with the help of ultrasonic sensor.
o The ultrasonic sensor will be displayed on the smart phone app,
the Wi-Fi module and cloud server will help to transmit the data
of level.
o According to the level of water in the tank the motor functioning
will be automatically controlled (ON at low level of water; OFF at
high level). It can also be controlled by the app.
o The flow sensor will be used to sense or calculate the water
consumption.

o Physical layer contains all the sensors
that are connected to the embedded
system.
o Service Layer consist of wireless
connectivity of the system.
o Presentation Layer is the output
where the water level and water
consumption will be displayed.
